A number of metrics for assessing human thermal response to climatic conditions have been proposed in scientific literature over the last decades. They aim at describing human thermal perception of the thermal environment to which an individual or a group of people is exposed. More recently, a new type of “discomfort index” has been proposed for describing, in a synthetic way, long-term phenomena. Starting from a systematic review of a number of long-term global discomfort indices, they are then contrasted and compared on a reference case study in order to identify their similarities and differences and strengths and weaknesses. Based on this analysis, a new short-term local discomfort index is proposed for the American Adaptive comfort model. Finally, a new and reliable long-term general discomfort index is presented. It is delivered in three versions and each of them is suitable to be respectively coupled with the Fanger, the European Adaptive and the American Adaptive comfort models.

Face au développement des différents secteurs économiques qui induisent une consommation énergétique croissante, et qui ont pour résultat un rejet massif de gaz et effet de serre et l’augmentation de la température du globe. Plusieurs mesures ont été prises dans les différents domaines comme celui du bâtiment en développant des modèles de constructions peu énergivore (NZEB) et différents modèles de conforts (ISO7730/ EN15251/ ASHRAE55 adaptatif/ Givoni) afin de réduire l’empreinte carbone des bâtiments et leurs consommations d’énergie. Dans ce contexte, ce travail se pose la question de savoir quel est le meilleur modèle de confort à recommander afin de réduire la consommation énergétique d’un bâtiment de type bureaux dans le climat chaud (cooling dominated) tout en garantissant le confort thermique intérieur. L’objectif de ce mémoire est de (1) Mettre en parallèle à la fois les modèles de confort et la consommation énergétique dans les climats chauds, (2) Choisir le modèle de confort qui nous garantit la meilleure qualité d’environnement intérieure, (3) Comparer la consommation d’énergie du bâtiment pour chaque modèle et choisir le moins énergivore.
